This surname may be extinct
Kinry Surname Definition:
Contracted from MacHenry, ‘Henry’s Son'.
'MacHenry, ' a.d. 1248.
Dr. Joyce, however, says that the MacHenry in Ireland is derived from Innerighe, ‘Early Riser', and that many MacHenrys now call themselves Early and Yardly. We find 'MacInnerigh' in O’Huidhrin’s poem, and in 1511 we have MacEnere as well as MacHenry, so it looks as if some, at any rate, of the Kinrys derived their names from this source.
